The first thing that Daniel ever requested was IPod. (his first word). So I always put it some place he couldn't get to and he was forced to point or ask. And than we moved to different toys, food. He learned to ask for help, to get on the swings. To turn on the light in the play room, put bubbles in the bath tub.... We are moving to games, taking turns, sharing. Not that its easy. And it was all you taught me!!Natalianoreply@blogger.com
